Heritage Touring Cars comprise the original cars of Groups C (1973-84) and A (1984 – 1992). Run to period specs and in period livery, these cars evoke the golden era of the Bathurst legends, the days of Brock, Moffat, Johnson and many others. There are cars from all the engine capacity classes which made the racing relevant and interesting to enthusiasts and casual spectator alike. Some of these cars are being driven in this event by their original drivers, including the Deluxe Coaches Commodore VL of Wayne Clift and the Corolla GT of 1966 Bathurst winner, Bob Holden. Yes Bob’s getting on now but hasn’t slowed noticeably. In fact he’s won the Lloyd Bax Handicap the last two years! The always crowd pleasing Historic Touring Cars of Group N have 35 cars entered for Autumn Historic Warwick, which is Round 3 of the Black Trucks/Isuzu Ute Queensland Cup series for 2016. There are 10 Group Nb cars (pre ’65) and and 25 Group Nc (1965-1972). These cars represent the “pre-advertising” days when most drivers were amateurs paying their own way, and the cars remained very close to street specs. The variety of cars in all Historic Racing is a major attraction, but especially in Group N where you have cars ranging from the (very) big Jaguar Mk7 of 1954 through the (very) small Mini Coopers of the 60’s to the nimble Datsun 1600 and huge Falcon GT of the early 70’s, and engines ranging from under 1 litre to over 6 litres. Yes, there’s a bit of variety in the drivers, too. Watch for plenty of action from this group. For 2016, HRCC has made it possible for the comeback of the great Sports Sedans of the seventies and eighties, many now having Historic logbooks under Group U rules, ie pre -86 and in the specification of a specific race meeting in period. These are the original cars of this crowd-pleasing class, and we have invited some local TransAm cars to join in, running under their Category 3D logbooks. The event also includes Racing Cars and Sports Cars from 1960 to 1984, and the popular Production Sports Cars of Groups S & T, sporting the Italians (Fiat, Ferrari, Alfa), the Germans (Porsche), the Japanese (Datsun) and the British (Triumph, Austin Healey, and Turner). There’ll also be two fields of Regularity Trials displaying even more variety, so come along and enjoy a great weekend of Historic Motor Racing!

Group N is designed to provide a forum for competitors to race production touring cars which do not necessarily have a racing history, but are presented in a form similar to racing of the period. Limited modifications may be made. These should be of a period nature and not out of character with the vehicle or group period. This section details the requirements common to all the Group N historic production touring cars that do not have a competition history. Additional specific requirements for individual groups are detailed in the individual group sections and all groups are also subject to the 5th Category general requirements set out in article 3.1. Vehicles shall comply with all relevant requirements of Schedules A, B and C (refer “General Requirements for Cars and Drivers” in the CAMS Manual of Motor Sport), where not in conflict with the Group N regulations. A high standard of presentation will be insisted upon at all times. Any vehicle considered to be of an inappropriate standard will be rejected. Vehicles decorated in a manner not consistent with the period (such as ‘modern’ graphics) may be considered to be of an inappropriate standard. Modifications may be made in accordance with the freedoms outlined in these and the group-specific regulations.
